JUMPCUT

just installed this and confirmed: this is fucking awesome

 

[DewChugr]

I recommend the search feature, it will take you to the other threads like this with all the answers.

 

[Netphase]

Good list!

and don't forget Colloquy for mIRC

Colloquy is for IRC. mIRC is the name of an IRC client for Windows.

Get 'Clips' your life will be whole better. Just checked out Jumpcut, does the same thing i guess.

Adium

Neo Office

Any Video Converter Pro

Monolingual(Saves a lot of space for you wasted on languages that you never use)

Pixelmator is a great photoshop alternative eventhough i got PS CS5.

S3hub to access your amazon S3 files

Split & Concat

and of course i use Little Snitch so that i can use the pro versions for free.

If you need the serial codes for all the pro versions Download Serial Box [09.2010] [MAC] + iSerial Reader [v2.0.8] + SerialSeeker [v1.3.4 (AF)] [MAC] [Universal] [CodeTempest] Torrent - KickassTorrents.com

Also be sure to use your disk checker utility to repair your hard drive. I just did it and it has made my Macbook a lot faster. People recommend doing it at least once a week to iron out the kinks.

Maintain - Cocktail - Overview does this and runs some other scripts that help keep things running quickly/smoothly. I run it from time to time.

I would normally have Quicksilver in my list, but when I finally got around to moving to Snow Leopard the other day. I binned Quicksilver!

What? Binned, I hear you scream. Yes, I went and got LaunchBar. It's even recommended by the creator of Quicksilver such is it's brilliance. I fucking love it. It looks different, but works almost exactly the same, but has lots more tricks up it's sleeve that QS never had.

LaunchBar 5

1Password is a must, along with Carbon Copy Cloner for backups, Yummy FTP, The Unarchiver, NeoOffice, Vitamin-R, RescueTime, Freemind and VLC.
